Mr.. VIM. W. Bloom, of Alton, Kan
sas, is visiting friends in this city. Mr..
Bloom left this town several years ago
and located in Kansas, where we are glad
to record, he has succeeded well. He is
pleased with the State, and thinks it a
good location for farmer with necessary
capital. Without this, it is useless to
come to Kansas. Owing to partial
failure of some crops this season, many
farmers who have gone heavily in debt
for their farms and improvements are
compelled to sell, and improved lands
that last year were held at thirty or forty
dollars per acre can now be bought for
about half that. The curse of Kansas,
he thinks, is the so-called 'sbrokers, who
are really robbers. They loan money to
farmers as high as three per cent. a
month, and they manage to get about all
the profit there is ia farming in prosper
GUS years. When poor crop occurs,
then they foreclose and ''gobble" up the
farm. Men who profess honesty and re-
spectability, are engaged in this business,
but it strikes us that the trade of a
"thimble rigger" is respectable by the
side OF it.

Philadelphia on September 10Th, 10th
and 18th. The commission having the
matter in charge has devoted much care
and attention to the detail of the various
forms of entertainment provided for the

seen in this country, while many indi-
yidual features will possess not only a
national but an historic interest.

for grand Industrial Display. 1t will
illustrate the customs, characteristics,
commerce, arts, implements of industry,
&C., OF 1887 compared with those in use

usual interest and beauty, and will afford
ocular demonstration of the changes and
progress in the first century of orr con-
stitutional existence. In the evening
Governor Beaver, Of Pennsylvania, will
hold public reception at the Academy
OF Music.
On Friday, September 10th, there will
be grand military parade and review,
in which the militia of the various States
will take part, assisted by detachments
OF United States regulars and marines,
and sailors from the ships of war in the

be in line, and the display will without
doubt be the finest seen in this country
since the war. In the evening recep-
ton will be held in honor of the Presi-
dent Of the United States aud the repre-
sentatiyes of foreign governments.
On Saturday, September 18th,
special commemorative services will be

The Fruit Exchange.


The Jersey Fruit Exchange, which
has now been in operation here for two
weeks, is certainly growing in favor.
Peach growers are beginning to realize
that nothing can be fairer than the way
business is conducted at the Exchange.
Any one, whether q member of the en-.
terprise or not, is allowed to sell his
fruit there, the Exchange taking one
cent per basket If the fruit is sold, and
nothing if not sold. Tho Exchange is
responsible for every load sold, and pays
for the elme as soon as the copnt is GER
tilted as correct by the parties loading
the cars. The fruit is put up and sold
at auction, the buyers having the privi-
lege of see og any basket on tho load
emptied to ascertain whether it is put
up honestly. The grower can reserve
his bid, and IS not compelled TO sell his
fruit at the price offered. Most growers
now drive all their loads through the
Exchange, and if unable to sell they still
have the same markets as before. The
Exchange is nott lg more nor less than
home market
A lively scene is presented about the
Exchange every afternoon and evening.
Wagons loaded with peaches crowd the
grounds, waiting their turns to drive
under Auctioneer Bodine's hammer, and
hundreds of our town people gather
about the stand to see the business trans-
acted. The buyers are there from New
York, Philadelphia, Connecticut and
other places, and good-nature is seen
under all .cnmstances. Occasionally
some peach seller who is suspected of
stopping his peaches is asked to show
his fruit by turning it into an empty
basket kept at the Exchange for tho pur-
pose. III found TO BIO fixed" he is
told to drive on--nobody wants to buy.
Fridays are poor market days at tho Elk
change, because the Boston buyers can
not ship 80 that the fruit will reach that
city before Sunday. Some twelve OF
fifteen hundred more baskets would have
been bought, however, last Friday had
the shippers been able to obtain cars.
The sales last week, as reported to us
by the quick and efficient Secretary Of
the organization, Mr.. John b. Case, Jr.,
were as follows Monday, 3,0t4 baskets
at an average price of 70 cents per bask.
ct; Tuesday, 3,16l baskets, at rs cents
Wednesday, 2,424 baskets, at rs cents
Thursday, 2,66S bTskets, Mt rs cents
Friday, LIZA baskets, at GO cents, ant
Saturday, 2.114 baskets, at rs cents--i
total OF IA, $50 baske's of peaches, fol
which $40, 775.l2 were received by oul
neighboring peach men.
One man drove into the Exchange OF
Wednesday afternoon and offered n load
of 80 baskets. The best bid he could
get upon them YVES rs cents per basket
This he refused aud shipped the fruit t.
New York. When the retrvns came ii
he found that he had lost twelve dollars
by not accepting the -home offer. Sey
eral others lost in the Same way.
To-day and throughout the week two
new buyers will be at the Exchange
one from Hartford, Conn, and the othe
from Providence, X. I.-Hputerdor

Now is the season to trap and cap
ture sparrows. They arc a good substi-
tute for reed birds, and are being sold for
such in the large cities. With the aid of
large net like crab net an enterprisng
man in Philadelphia is supplying the
restaurants, catching the sparrows at
night from ivy covered walls. He has
taken as many as 1870 dozen in one night.
This is one Of his receipts for cooking
them:
There's one dish the sparrers make
better than reedies, an they are ginerally
used for it. You take potater an split
it, an you scoop out jest enough of the
potater to make hole large enough fer
to put the sparrer in. Before You put
the bird in you put an oyster inside o.
him. Shut yer pertater up, tie string
around it and bake it. III you only had
$40 an each pertater filled with sparrer
cost dollar, you'd eat yer $40 out Of you

A Pleasant surprise.

A Pleasant Surprise.
On September I'd pleasant company
was gathered at the home of Uncle .
Charles Green, of Sergeantsville, father
of Messrs. Nehemiah and Austin Green,
of Lambertville. The occasion of the
gathering was the fifty fifth anniversary
of the wedding of the father and mother.
Five years ago surprise was planned
by this same party, but the father and
mother remembered that it was their
golden wedding and had prepared a sur
prise for their children, should they
come. Their surprise was III fiye-dollar
gold pieces for each Of their children
and one dollar gold pieces for the grand
children. The children were more sur
prised then than the father and mother !;
but this time the company was unlocked
for.
About IL o'clock, A. NJ, the quiet was
disturbed by two or three wagon-loads
of children and grandchildren unload
ing themselves and taking possession OF
the house. With company of thirty.
three for dinner and no preparation,
things began to grow serious. But the
children had not forgotten, and soon the
baskets were unloaded and the good
things in abundance were piled upon the
table, until the old family table fairly
groaned. The sturdy sons and daugh-
tiers were also groaning, being hungry,
and when the invitation was given,
twenty-one persons sat down and began
to relieve the burdened table. 1t was
grand sight to see the couple of fifty-fi
welded years seated at the table with
seven of their eight children. The father
and mother looked upon their five sons
and two daughters Zone daughter, Mrs
Gray, being absenD, and tears were
brought to their eyes as they spoke of
the comfort the day brought to them.
May they live to see many anniver-
saries, was the gladstone wish of all
present
Mr.. and Mrs. Case, Mrs. Hanson and
Rev. and Mrs. P. @. Bascom were the
only ones present save the Immediate
family. y

The New Hunterdon County Agri-
cultural Society cannot be accused of a
lack OF gallantry toward the ladies. 1t
has abolished all entrance fees upon ar
tlcles of any character exhibited in the
Ladies Department, and increased the
facilities for their protection. Liberal
premiums are also offered. This we re-
gard as wise measure, and it will doubt
less greatly increase the display of artistic

ty ladies are notably proficient
